INSTALL BATTERIES INTO RADIO

Slide the cover down and insert 4 AA batteries.

LINKING

1. Turn on the radio with the throttle

at its lowest position.

2. Connect the battery to the Ominus and place it on a level

surface. The LED on the quad will flash rapidly when the

quad is linked to the radio and ready to fly.

ALWAYS unplug the battery after flying!

BEFORE FLYING, PLEASE

READ & UNDERSTAND

THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

POWER SWITCH

LOW BATTERY INDICATOR

The LEDs on the Ominus will flash slowly when the battery voltage is low. The Ominus FPV should be landed as soon as possible to avoid damaging the battery.

Always unplug the battery after flight. The battery needs to be charged before the quadcopter is stored.

To toggle between the normal and expert agility

(accelerometers off) modes, press the Flight Mode Button.

When the accelerometers are off, the flight controller will

make the Ominus more agile, but also it is easier to crash.

Flight Mode LEDs steady on: Easy and normal flight (accelerometers on)

Flight Mode LEDs flashing: Advanced and expert flight (accelerometers off)

Push down on right top button and

release. Audible low and high tone.

DUAL RATES

Control sensitivity can be changed by pushing down on the right stick on

the controller. The controller will make a short, low-pitched beep.

This mode should be used when flying indoors or when learning

how to fly. The controller will make a short, high-pitched beep

when changing to high rates. This mode should be used when

flying outdoors or when more agility is desired.

The low rate sensitivity will always be 25% less than the high rate.

The overall controls can be adjusted by

1. Holding down the right stick until the controller starts beeping.

2. Continue holding down the right stick and advance the throttle

to the desired setting.

3. Release the right and return the throttle to 0%.

The default setting is when the throttle stick is at 50% (midstick).

FLYING BASICS

1. Take off by “slowly” advancing the left

stick until the quad takes off.

2. Control altitude using the left stick.

3. Use the right stick to move left, right,

forward, or backward.

4. Use the left stick (left/right) rotate or

spin left or right.

5. Always use small movements until you

learn how the model behaves.

If the quadcopter is constantly drifting in the same direction or a new flight control board has been installed, the sensors on the Ominus should be calibrated.

1. Center all the trim adjustments. To check the trim, push the trim button once on one side and then once on the opposite side. When the trim is centered,

the transmitter will emit a long, low pitched beep. The transmitter will emit a short beep of lower pitch as the adjustment gets closer to center and higher

pitch as the adjustment moves away from center. Continue pressing the trim button that has the lower pitch until the adjustment is centered.

2. Push down on the right stick and hold it. The radio will steadily beep while the stick is held down.

3. Press down on the left stick 3 times within 2 seconds. The radio will stop the steady beep and make a short beep when the stick is pressed the third time.

4. Release both sticks and push up on the throttle trim button. The red LED will flash slowly and become steady again when the calibration is complete.

5. Press down on the left stick to save the settings.

QUADCOPTER SENSOR CALIBRATION

6. Turn on the controller and plug in the battery for the Ominus FPV.

7. Go to the Wi-Fi setting on your phone and check that the FPVCAM is

on. The password for the FPV Cam is 1234567890.

8. Open the FPVCAM app on your phone and push the “+” in the upper

right hand corner. This will locate the camera.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM: The quadcopter will not respond to the radio.

SOLUTION: (1) Charge or change the battery on the quadcopter. (2) Turn off

the radio and disconnect the battery for the Ominus. Re-link the

quadcopter and radio.

PROBLEM: Red radio LED light flashing after linking.

SOLUTION: Replace with new AAA batteries.

PROBLEM: Unable to flip.

SOLUTION: Battery voltage too low.

PROBLEM: Gyro not working properly.

SOLUTION: (1) Battery voltage low. (2) Re-link. (3) Land onto the ground for 3

seconds and take off again.

PROBLEM: Will not take off.

SOLUTION: Rotor blades incorrectly installed. See Rotor Blade Replacement

section.

PROBLEM: Quadcopter is shaking.

SOLUTION:

Check the canopy, chassis, motors and rotor blades for damage.

GEAR SHAFT REPLACEMENT

1. Remove the rotor blade from the gear shaft.

2. Push the shaft down to remove it from the gear.

3. Install the new gear shaft and rotor blade if it is not damaged.

Note: While the gear is out, check it carefully for any cracks or damage to

the teeth.

MOTOR REPLACEMENT

1. Remove the screw securing the motor cover to the arm and pull the cover

off the motor.

2. Use a small flat blade screwdriver to separate the motor plug from the

socket. DO NOT pull the wires.

3. Remove the motor from the frame and insert the replacement. Make sure

that the wire colors on the replacement motor are the same as the original.

The motors for the clockwise props have black and white wires. The

counter-clockwise props use motors with blue and red wires.

FLIGHT CONTROL BOARD REPLACEMENT

6. Install the new control board and

route the wires for motors. To

prevent damage to the wires, route

them between the guides on the

inside of the arms.

7. Install the LED covers. There are openings on the cover for the wires. Before tightening the

screws, make sure the wires are positioned correctly.

BATTERY PRECAUTIONS

The Ominus FPV uses a lithium polymer (LiPo) battery. Follow these precautions to insure safe and trouble-free operation.

•

ALWAYS disconnect the battery from the quadcopter when not in use.

•

Only use the included charger with the ﬂ ight battery.

•

Do not attempt to use this charger with NiCd or NiMH battery packs.

•

Do not attempt to use a damaged battery.

•

This product contains a LiPo battery. Must be recycled or disposed of

properly.

•

Do not leave the charger unattended while charging. Disconnect the

battery and unplug the charger immediately if either becomes hot!

However, it is normal for the charger to get warm.

•

Disconnect the battery from the charger and carefully move the

battery to a ﬁ reproof location if the battery begins to swell or smoke!

•

Never allow the battery temperature to exceed 140° F [60° C].

•

Do not attempt to charge a battery if it is swollen or hot.

•

Do not place the charger or any battery on a ﬂ ammable surface or

near combustible materials while in use.

•

Never disassemble or modify pack wiring in any way or puncture cells.

•

Never charge inside a vehicle.

•

Always disconnect the battery and remove the charger from the USB

port when not in use.

•

Land your model immediately when the LEDs ﬂ ash to indicate that the

battery power is low. Recharge the battery before attempting another

ﬂ ight. A dangerous situation can occur when attempting to recharge

an over-discharged battery!

•

ALWAYS keep a supply of sand accessible when charging. Dumping

sand on the battery will extinguish a LiPo chemical ﬁ re.

•

ALWAYS KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
